Today was a wet, soggy Monday! We made the best of the weather by having a fun-filled indoor play day! We kicked off our unit on the letter Kk by brainstorming all of the Kk words we knew. Then we sat down to paint a lovely water color painting with a magic letter hidden in the middle! Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Hill used tape to block off a letter K, and we set to work painting around it.

We also completed a listening activity for the letter Kk. We discussed each of the objects in a picture, and we colored the ones that began with the K sound. We discovered a kitten, kites, keys, a kangaroo, and more! Then we got to try two new activities. At one table, we practiced popping plastic bubbles (great for building hand strength and fine motor skills). When we were done, we did a little ice fishing for letters and numbers. Once we "caught" a number or letter, we had to name it and give its sound if it had one. Then we got to drop it in our buckets.

Steven was our leader today! He did a great job leading us in the Pledge of Allegiance, reviewing sight words, and helping write the morning sentences. Thanks, Steven!
We had a great day today! Hopefully the sun will come back soon, but if not, we have some very cool new activities waiting for a lucky boy or girl to try them out! See you tomorrow!
